Cars - Gary Numan
I love how serious he looks. Like if he breaks a smile the song is ruined.
He looks that serious, because those were the 80s; sorry, pre-80s. To be honest, 44 upvotes for this video, does show our/the vidsifters average age, doesn’t it?

True, I added it to that channel. Thanks for pointing it out.
In reply to this comment by Octopussy:
Shouldn't this be posted to the *Islamica channel?
Well, the channel is supposed to be dedicated to, i.a., celebrating the rich tapestry of Islamic culture, but lately it seemed to have filled it up with Pat Condell, Gitmo and suicide bombers, so I think your contribution is much appreciated.
Btw, you got the longest personal queue I've ever seen on the sift. I'd like to give you a few upvotes, but I don't know where to begin ;-).

So by your logic, if Switzerland would’ve encouraged people to leave nazi-Germany it would’ve been responsible for anything else that happened to those people afterwards? No matter how badly Palestinians are treated in the neighbouring countries (I do agree in general on that point, but you might want to take a look at Jordan; at least one Palestinian over there is now a queen), if their situation in those countries is not much better, or maybe even worse, than it would be in Israel/PA, why don’t the Palestinians return... *rhetorical question mark*
But all that is beside the point. If something, anything bad happens to people in their own country, why would the neighbouring countries be more responsible than the government of the country itself?
Anyway, thanks for calling me just ignorant and not racist ;-).
Israeli Troops Shoot Palestinian Point Blank Range.
But the problem is not so much that it is staged, as that images are shown in a certain context. However, no matter how much it makes you feel sick or angry, it is all part of free speech. I mean, will anybody seriously claim that the major news networks around the world don’t do the same?

>> ^RedSky: Guess they would have been a bit hesitant with the news crew there.
Nah, the israeli military has no qualms about censorship or shooting (to kill) reporters.
Yeah, let's bash Israel over a clip about how their checkpoints stop a 14 year-old suicide bomber saving not only civilians, but the poor kid's life as well.

Well, correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think the checkpoints are there to save disturbed and/or retarded 14-year old Palestinian kids.
And why would Lebanon, Syria, Jordan and Egypt be responsible for Palestinian lives? I’ve never seen any other neighbouring countries being blamed for what happened on their doorstep. Where the Netherlands ever blamed for what happened in Northern Ireland, or Switzerland for the millions killed in nazi-occupied Europe?
And please don’t call people ignorant racists just because they disagree with you.
